It's been one year since Israel invaded Gaza in its campaign to destroy Hamas in the wake of the Oct. 7 attacks. Since then, the Biden Administration has given Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government everything it wanted and has posed little resistance as the Israeli military has killed more than 42,000 people, mostly civilians, destroyed most of the buildings and infrastructure,, and created one of the worst humanitarian crises in recent memory. The word "ceasefire" is increasingly absent from Biden's public remarks or the White House briefing room.

A new video, produced by the Quincy Institute, puts these grim statistics in sharp relief.

Chile, meet Donroe: Rubio yanks visas over proposed China deal

Latin America

On February 20, the State Department announced it had revoked the visas of Chile’s minister of transport and telecommunications, the deputy minister of telecommunications, and the latter’s chief of staff, for purportedly “endangering regional security.”

The announcement, triggered by the fact that the Chilean government was considering authorizing the installation of a fiber optic submarine internet cable from Valparaiso to Hong Kong, threw U.S.-Chile relations into a tailspin.
